Catalogue Note

"Svastiche, falci-e-martello, cimiteri di guerra, stelle rosse, stelle giudaiche, stelle inscritte in mezzelune algerine, bandiere francesi (aggressioni e ricordi, e tutta Europa coinvolta): un repertorio epico-araldico che tranquillamente consegna su una tela di aperta contemplazione storica torture, morti, sventramenti, stragi, epidemie di furore mentale e qualche mucchio di messianismi fasulli.,, M. Diacono, presentazione della mostra Franco Angeli, Galleria La Tartaruga, Roma, 1963
